Abstract:

We compiled a list of the fern and lycophyte species that occur in Mesoamerica and extend into Colombia and Ecuador, where they are restricted to the western side of the Andes; that is, they occur only west of the crest of the easternmost cordillera and are absent from that cordillera’s eastern slope and in adjacent Amazonia. We found 131 species with this Mesoamerican and west-of-the-eastern-cordillera distribution. Those 131 species constitute 7% of the total 1805 fern and lycophyte species that have been recorded west of the crest of the easternmost cordillera in Colombia and Ecuador. All 1

Abstract:

We identified biogeographical districts in the Páramo biogeographic province, in the north-western Andes of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela, including the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta in Colombia, above 3000m ASL. We applied a parsimony analysis of endemicity (PAE) to 8418 distributional data of 4644 vertebrate and angiosperm species, distributed in the north-western Andes and the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Areas analysed were selected according to the hypotheses of several authors. We obtained a single most parsimonious cladogram, which shows 10 groups of areas (southern Ecuadorian, centra

Abstract:

Two species of Monstera, apparently endemic to Costa Rica, are newly described and illustrated. Monstera juliusii occurs in the southern Costa Rican portion of the Cordillera de Talamanca at 1600–2250 m, and has been confused with M. standleyana in herbaria. Monstera monteverdensis occurs in the Guanacaste and Tilarán cordilleras, and the northwestern part of the Cordillera Central, at 500–2300 m, and has been confused with M. epipremnoides, M. lentii and M. lechleriana in herbaria.

Abstract:

Three additional species of Eleutherodactylus are described from the Andean forests of the northern Cordillera Oriental. One belongs to the E. conspicillatus species group and appears to be related to the widespread E. wiligrum. Another resembles E. tubernasus in appearance but is related to other frogs found in the Central and Occidental cordilleras. The E. tubernasus species group is re-evaluated, reducing the four once-recognized species to two, which are not closely related. The third new species seems to have a connection to E. ga110110/us (Andean forests of eastern Ecuador) and E. viridi

Abstract:

The Cretaceous and Paleogene magmatic arcs of the Central and Western Cordilleras of Colombia have been attributed to the evolution of a subduction system in the Colombian Pacific coast. In this work the distribution and crystallization ages of plutons emplaced between 60 Ma and 53 Ma in the Central and Western Cordilleras are analyzed. From 53 Ma the magmatic arc migrates towards the west of Colombia, installing magmas in a plate edge transitional crust. The crystallization ages analyzed in this work suggest that, within the study area, the plutonic belt is continuous throughout the Western C

Resumen. Las excavaciones adelantadas en el yacimiento de La Esmeralda (Guamo, Tolima) son de gran importancia para la arqueología regional, en la medida en que los resultados permitieron establecer una secuencia cultural estratifi cada de unos 2.000 años de duración. El conocimiento delas ocupaciones prehispánicas, que conforman dicha secuencia, son un importante aporte para la comprensión de la historia y de los complejos procesos culturales de las sociedades antiguas que se asentaron en el valle del Magdalena tolimense y regiones vecinas (estribaciones y vertientes de las cordilleras Orient

Abstract:

SUMMARY The complex Moho topography beneath the northwestern Andes is the result of multiple geodynamic processes during the Cenozoic. To contribute to our understanding of the Moho depth distribution beneath this region, we inverted gravity data from two widely used satellite-derived data sets (EGM2008 and EIGEN-6C4) and one regional airborne Bouguer gravity anomaly map (ANH2010). Their inversion allowed choosing the ANH2010, based on lower residual gravity and a higher agreement with seismic estimations, as the most suitable data set to gain insights into the Moho depth beneath the northwest

Abstract:

Abstract. The role of glaciers as temporal water reservoirs is particularly pronounced in the (outer) tropics because of the very distinct wet/dry seasons. Rapid glacier retreat caused by climatic changes is thus a major concern, and decision makers demand urgently for regional/local glacier evolution trends, ice mass estimates and runoff assessments. However, in remote mountain areas, spatial and temporal data coverage is typically very scarce and this is further complicated by a high spatial and temporal variability in regions with complex topography. Here, we present an approach on how to d

Bolivia holds one of the world's richest avifaunas, but large areas remain biologically unexplored or unsurveyed. This study carried out the first ornithological inventory of one of the largest of these unexplored areas, the yungas forests of Cordilleras Cocapata and Mosetenes. A total of 339 bird species were recorded including 23 restricted-range, four Near-Threatened, two globally threatened, one new to Bolivia and one that may be new to science. The study extended the known altitudinal ranges of 62 species, 23 by at least 500 m, which represents a substantial increase in our knowledge of s

Las peridotitas de Ronda (Málaga) forman la base del manto de Los Reales (Alpujárrides, Cordilleras Béticas). Las rocas ultrabásicas del macizo de Sierra Alpujata permiten reconocer dos deformaciones plásticas sucesivas. La primera es una deformación de altas temperaturas (> 1.000ºC) y bajos esfuerzos (0.3-0.5 Kb) que se conserva en lherzolitas con textura porfiroclástica de grano grueso. Esta deformación puede atribuirse al flujo del manto en una zona de expansión relacionada a procesos de "rifting" continental. La segunda deformación, de bajas temperaturas (~800ºC) y altos esfuerzos (1-2

Se muestrearon once bosques naturales conservados. En cada bosque se establecieron dos transectos de 250 m x 2,5 m. A lo largo de cada transecto, se ubicaron seis estaciones de muestreo cada 50 metros, en las cuales se instalaron trampas de olor con atrayentes aromáticos. El material bio
